    Nah if they want to run a little cult where everyone thinks what a leader tells them they can do it in their own homes or make their own Jonestown.

    They can’t do it publicly and they don’t get tax breaks for it.

    Nobody is stopping you from practicing religion, just your victim complex.

      Being able to publicly express their opinions, even religion, is a human right and fundamental constitutional right in any democracy. Stripping it would strip the country of freedom of speech and democracy as whole.

          Nobody is forcing you to excerise religion. It is your right to dunk on it, to hate it, but you cannot prohibit its exercise. Yes, cultists shoving it down their children’s throats is a problem, but that can be solved with overturning Yoder and focusing in prevention in the education system.

            You’re not oppressed

            You don’t need a pastor to tell you what to think, just read the book yourself and don’t be lazy.

            Banning organized religion means you and your cult members cannot organize and fuck up the world for the rest of us.

            There are already several countries that do this and it works great to keep religion out of public policy.
